"Apocalypse of Ice?"
Xu Neng repeatedly whispered these four words.
"If what Wang Wu said is true, the eight people cannot survive for long with only the supplies in the air-raid shelter."
Now that Cui Laoliu has been arrested, his location will be exposed sooner or later, so it's only a matter of time before they come.
Moreover, Wang Wu seems to have ulterior motives, and the current situation can almost be described as beset by internal and external troubles.
How can we break this deadlock?
Xu Neng disliked this passive feeling.
Xu Neng recalled the fleeting look of terror on Wang Feifei's face when she saw the snow, and her words of urging him to return to America before leaving.
She might actually know something!
"Even... Chu Xiang's loan ended up in her hands. She needed the money to make all the necessary preparations."
The mysteries that Xu Neng couldn't figure out before have now been solved.
"She's probably found a safe place now and is living her own little life."
This is the only thing that's comforting right now...
"The situation is getting increasingly out of control, and a mysterious organization called the 'Frost Society' has even emerged."
"Perhaps Wang Feifei knows something else!"
Xu Neng dialed the number, only to hear her icy voice:
"What are you trying to do now!"
Xu Neng recalled her impatient face and wanted to tease her on purpose: "Can't I come to you if there's nothing wrong?"
"no!"
"Can I contact you if I need anything?"
Wang Feifei knew there was trouble outside, and upon hearing "something's wrong," she unconsciously changed her tone:
"What happened to you?"
"Well, nothing special, I just accidentally took over an air-raid shelter. There's so much food I can't possibly eat it all, so I was wondering if you wanted some?"
Even at this point, they're still joking around. Wang Feifei said irritably, "I don't want it. You keep it safe and don't let someone else take it from you."
Xu Neng suddenly became serious and asked, "Do you know about the 'Ice Society'?"
Wang Feifei was stunned by those three words. How did he know? The "Ice Society" appeared so quickly in this life? A whole week earlier than in the previous life.
Unbeknownst to her, in this life, thanks to Xiao Liu's assistance as a "prophet" in stockpiling crucial resources, the Frost Society was able to rapidly grow stronger.
Worried that Xu might guess her identity, Wang Feifei could only laugh it off: "I don't know much, but they are very ruthless. It's best not to get caught by them."
Thinking of Xiao Liu's tragic past life in her dream, she couldn't help but remind Xu Neng.
Xu Neng probably knew the answer, and said in a casual tone:
"Okay, I understand, thank you!"
Xu Neng had already made a decision in secret: joining the Frost Society might be the only way forward at the moment.
Wang Feifei hung up the phone, feeling uneasy.
If what Xu Neng said is true, then after the power is completely cut off, the "Frost Society" will begin a city-wide search.
She was afraid that other neighbors would expose the unfinished building, and then the floor where the safe house was located would be searched sooner or later, so all the hidden construction work needed to be accelerated.
The main entrances to the 25th, 26th, and 27th floors are now completely sealed off, leaving only the stairwells.
Wang Feifei spent the entire afternoon going back and forth between the floors, trying to cover all the staircases with water.
Once this step is completed, a permanent power outage will make it virtually impossible to climb up the stairs.
By this time, it was getting dark quickly. Since the blizzard, the days had been getting shorter, and it was only four o'clock, so there was hardly any light outside.
Having learned from his previous failure, Zhao Qian was wiser. Recalling the ice that had appeared out of thin air, he almost concluded:
That woman must be in the group!
He was just about to look for the woman in the group chat when a sudden power outage interrupted him, plunging the entire neighborhood into complete darkness.
The whole city is without power again; this is going to be an even longer and more difficult process.
Unlike last time, this time everyone seemed to know in advance, and every household was overloading their heating appliances, making a power outage inevitable.
The power outage lasted for more than an hour. Everyone waited and prayed in silence, while also fearing being robbed. The whole city was silent.
Compared to the silence in the citizens' homes, the silent war is even more terrifying. The gangs in the city that are stubbornly resisting the "Ice Society" are suffering a devastating blow.
Meanwhile, Hu Tianhao was also very busy.
He summoned Xiao Liu for the second time on the top floor of the Gothic Building.
Xiao Liu's feelings this time were completely different from before, because he knew that this time he was about to reach the pinnacle of power.
"President Hu!" Xiao Liu greeted him solicitously as he entered the room.
Hu Tianhao, sitting behind his desk, saw Xiao Liu arrive and broke into a wide grin:
"Liu Jianxin, Little Liu! I'll remember you. Come, sit down." Hu Tianhao pointed to the seat in front of the table.
Xiao Liu didn't dare to sit down, but stood respectfully by the table with his head down.
"Xiao Liu, you really helped me a lot. I never realized there was such a talent as you in the group! If it weren't for the equipment you stockpiled in advance, we would still be at a loss."
"Mr. Hu, you flatter me. I was just doing my job. I don't deserve such praise!"
Hu Tianhao looked the young man up and down, a smile playing on his lips. Suddenly, he stood up, walked over to Xiao Liu, and patted him on the shoulder.
"Tell me, how did you know all this in advance?"
Upon first physical contact with Hu Tianhao, Xiao Liu experienced an overwhelming physiological reaction; his throat bobbed, and he almost vomited.
The agony of being branded with hot irons in my past life, and the lingering smell of burnt flesh in my nasal cavity, reappeared in my memory.
Xiao Liu forcibly concealed his surging hatred, lowering his head even further:
"Mr. Hu, I saw these things in a dream, which is why I came to seek refuge with you. I know that only by following you and joining the 'Frost Society' can we survive this icy apocalypse."
Hu Tianhao's pupils contracted slightly, his heart skipped a beat: He actually knew about the Frost Society? The name "Frost Society" was only finalized last night; there was no way an outsider could know it.
In addition, the supplies that Xiao Liu had stockpiled in the underground warehouse were almost exactly what he had anticipated for future needs.
All of this made him wonder, just who was Xiao Liu?
Thinking of this, Hu Tianhao scrutinized Xiao Liu once more and even felt a little afraid of him.
At this moment, Hu Tianhao dared not judge whether this person would become a source of trouble in the future.
But now, it can indeed be used to my advantage!
It seems there are some things we can let him participate in.
Hu Tianhao picked up the phone on the table: "Come here for a moment."
Soon there was a knock on the door, and Shen Qingshan walked in, still dressed in a well-fitting suit, with a smile on his face that Xiao Liu had never seen before, and stood by the table.
"Xiao Shen, let me introduce you to a new colleague. This is Liu Jianxin. From now on, he'll be my assistant, just like you!"
With a sincere smile on his face, Shen Qingshan reached out and shook hands with Xiao Liu: "Hello, from now on we're brothers. I'll take care of everything, don't worry."
Xiao Liu extended his hand, pretending not to understand his implied meaning, and sincerely replied, "From now on, we will assist President Hu together."
"Hahaha..." Hu Tianhao laughed as he looked at Xiao Liu: "Come on, tell me what you're going to do next?"
